Interesting archaeological finds in the area of submerged glacial polish in Lake Bled at Želeče

The contribution presents the results of an intensive archaeological survey, conducted in 2019 in the area of the submerged glacial polish in Lake Bled at Želeče. Early use of this part of the lake shoreline is attested by an iron double-barbed point, which can tentatively be dated between the Late Roman Period and the High Middle Ages. Rare fragments of medieval and early modern ceramic vessels (12th, 15th–17th centuries), encountered in the rocky shallows a fair distance from the shore, point to a possible existence of a wooden construction, probably connected with fishery and fishing, respectively.
